What does it say about My Hero One’s Justice 2 when I can’t even recommend it to My Hero Academia fans? Not only did I not enjoy my time with the game, I felt offended that my favourite characters and stories were being butchered in such a terrible game. Worst of all, it feels like a disservice to Kohei Horikoshi’s brilliant work.

The roster now stands at around 40 fighters featuring characters through the end of the Shie Hassaikai arc in the fourth season of the anime. If you were really concerned with having the latest heroes and villains to play with in the arena, then I suppose your prayers have been answered. For anyone else, My Hero One's Justice was already a tough sell, and now that I can't even get past the title screen without the game freezing I cannot recommend this lazy sequel at all.

This one could have used more development time and I really hope that whatever game development is done next with My Hero Academia learns from these mistakes.

My Hero One's Justice 2 has promise, but features too many let downs that can't be ignored.

Once the novelty of playing a game within the My Hero Academia world wears off, all that's left is another fairly average arena brawler. Different modes aren't enough to make the title stand out, and ultimately, My Hero One's Justice 2 offers an experience which, although enjoyable, is forgettable and somewhat bland. It's safe to say that we expected more from this sequel.

If you're a fan of the anime, you're going to enjoy this and you might even come to enjoy the flawed fighting mechanics. For anybody else, My Hero One's Justice 2 is just another aggressively mediocre anime fighter, the latest in a long line of them.

One should know that My Hero One's Justice does not perform well as a fighting game, but it also does not satisfy even fans of MHA. after a few hours of fighting with your favorite characters and fighting in their form, the game has virtually nothing to offer. like a repetitive loophole he turns around and asks you to join him in this meaningless rotation, which he certainly won't be able to do

While the content within My Hero One’s Justice 2 isn’t bad, there just isn’t a lot in this entry which makes it stand out from the countless other anime fighters.

While it’s definitely a casual anime arena fighter, there are definitely worse examples. The game has a certain flow to the fights that feels really good to play. Despite some performance issues and overly simple gameplay, it still offers some fun. If you enjoyed the first one, then chances are you’ll also enjoy this iteration as well.

So, while My Hero One’s Justice 2 is undoubtedly a better game than the first, you’ll likely be a little disappointed with it, whether you’re a fan of My Hero Academia or not. Still, there are worse ways to spend your money.

My Hero One's Justice is a solid enough fighter, with plenty to offer for fans of the franchise. But those looking for a deep fighting game, as well as those who aren't already fans, should look elsewhere; there's little for them here.

My Hero One's Justice 2 on the Nintendo Switch is bursting with content that doesn't seem to end and with its simple combat system and addictive game modes, it will be a delight for the fans of the My Hero Academia series. Strangely enough, its less exciting component is the campaign mode, as the game's plot doesn't do a great favour to the moment of the series it's based on, and some decisions are difficult to understand. Overall, this is a game mostly aimed at big fans of the series and less so at newcomers.

My Hero One's Justice does so much right with a fun combat system and some lovely anime-style visuals but lets the whole experience down by a lackluster story mode, a lack of performance polish, and some serious repetition in the single-player content. Having said that though, these games keep improving, so if we're lucky, we'll be impressed by My Hero One's Justice 3.

My Hero One's Justice 2 is a far cry from the esports-ready fighter you may have wanted. It skirts along the line between woefully undercooked and passable. But for fans of the series, you'd be hard-pressed to find something even half as faithful.

Ultimately, though, what stings the most about seeing My Hero One's Justice 2 is how much hasn't changed since the first game. It's still very much a reasonably well-made and pretty anime arena fighter, but it's nothing more than that. Even the considerably messier One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows at least had the ambition to try to capture the source material's spirit through its main single-player mode. My Hero Academia fans looking for exactly that will be satisfied, but once again it seems Bandai Namco have opted to coast rather than adopt U.A.'s "Plus Ultra" philosophy.

My Hero One's Justice 2 touches up some of the nuances of the original's combat and builds an impressive roster, but doesn't bring its A-game when it comes to offering much beyond a few good matches.

My Hero One’s Justice 2 makes surprisingly few changes to its predecessors’ style but brings nearly double the roster to its flashy fights in what remains a solid arena fighter.

Despite small improvements and a larger roster of characters, My Hero One’s Justice 2 doesn’t quite offer enough significant evolution in its gameplay or combat to set it apart from its first instalment.

My Hero One's Justice 2 has improved in almost every aspect comparing to its predecessor, and while its new features are enough to keep the fans of the series happy, the depth of gameplay and the fact that it gets repetitive, prevent it from becoming an ideal choice for all the fans of the genre.
